I Hate You, Devil! 186 Can I do it?

"Jiang Min, why did you betray him?" Luo Xiaolei asked. Her voice was emotionless as she glared at him. She couldn't believe that this young man, of all people, was the one who betrayed Yu Chen. She had often spoken to Jiang Min every time she had the chance and because he was the youngest among Yu Chen's men, and the same age as one of her babies at Star Castle, Luo Xiaolei had had a soft spot for him and she really liked him. He was cute, smart and an exceptional hacker. He even once said that he wanted to be as good a hacker as the Monster one day. But how did it come to this? Why did he have to betray Yu Chen?

Jiang Min began crying as soon as he heard her. He just sobbed hard, biting his lip. He didn't answer her. He didn't even open his eyes to look at her. He just wept silently on the chair, as the blood from the wounds all over his body dripped on the floor.

"Did you know that the first man Yu Chen killed was a traitor?" Xiaolei continued. "That man was someone he trusted but he betrayed Yu Chen. Because of that man, everything turned into chaos. Many things have been changed and destroyed because of his betrayal and Yu Chen got hurt so much. And now… something like that has happened again. Why? Why did you betray him? Tell me! You told me once that you would serve Yu Chen as long as he needed you." Luo Xiaolei fists were clenched in a tight ball as she spoke.

The young man gritted his teeth and the moment he opened his eyes and looked at her, he broke down.

"I'm sorry… I'm sorry… I'm sorry…" he screamed as he cried. "They took my grandma… they said they'd kill her. I know I can't be forgiven anymore… please, just kill me now." He pleaded as his scream of agony echoed inside the cold, dark garage.

Luo Xiaolei heard from Yu Chen that the men who surrounded and protected him didn't have families. Most of them were people who grew up as orphans. His grandfather chose these kinds of skilled men to prevent something like this from happening. She also asked about Jiang Min and Yu Chen had told her that he was also an orphan. His grandmother was the one who took care of him until he grew up. When his grandmother was sent to the nursing home because of old age, Yu Chen finally accepted him.

The young man was very talented and useful, which was why even the older ones never belittled him but it appeared that he was still just a young boy. Everyone knew, even this young Jiang Min, the price of betraying Yu Chen. Yu Chen was always merciless to anyone who betrayed him. He wouldn't even ask about the reason, unlike Luo Xiaolei. But even though he had his reason, he was still the one who made the choice. Betrayal was betrayal and you had to suffer the consequences. That was always their rule.

"Please… just kill me now." Jiang Min didn't stop pleading. His voice was trailing off. His strength was finally at its limit.

Luo Xiaolei didn't say anymore words. She was surprised that even though this young man, who had won a soft spot in her heart, was in this state, tortured and weeping, all she felt was anger and resentment. He was the reason why her Yu Chen was in a coma right now. She couldn't and wouldn't forgive him even though he had his own reasons. She was surprised at how heartless she could be towards people who hurt her Yu Chen.

Finally, Zhou Yuan stepped forward. He raised his gun and pointed it at the man next to Jiang Min.

"Miss, please leave now and let us wrap up everything here." He asked but Luo Xiaolei averted her gaze away from Jiang Min and looked at Zhuo Yuan with a shockingly cold gaze.

"Can I do it?" she asked, raising her hand to take the gun from him. Her tone was still emotionless, something all the men with her had never seen before nor even imagined. Even Kyuu was so surprised his eyes widened in disbelief.

When Zhuo Yuan simply stood there, not knowing what to do, Xiaolei stepped towards him. She attempted to take the gun from Zhou Yuan's hand when suddenly, a hand darted out and held her wrist. It was Kyuu.

"Miss." Kyuu was looking at her anxiously as he shook his head. "Leave this to him." He urged but Luo Xiaolei didn't back off.

"Please, there's no way I'll let you dirty your hand. Chen will never let you do something like this either." He explained and the coldness in Xiaolei's eyes somehow melted upon hearing the last sentence Kyuu had uttered.

She finally retracted her hand as she bit her lip hard.

Kyuu then nodded at Zhuo Yuan and then, after a moment, two gunshots echoed one after another. The two men who drove the trucks, the two men who Gu Wei had captured, fell to the ground one after another. They were never going to see the light of day again.

Zhou Yuan finally walked towards Jiang Min. When he pointed his gun on his head, everyone dropped their eyes, except Kyuu and Luo Xiaolei.

"Miss… when boss wakes up, please tell him I'm sorry and thank you for everything." The young man said before he closed his eyes.

Zhuo Yuan paused for a moment and then he was about to pull the trigger when Luo Xiaolei suddenly spoke.

"Stop." She said, causing everyone to look at her in shock. "Jiang Min… once Yu Chen wakes up, he himself will be the one to deal with you."

After saying those words in an ice cold tone, Luo Xiaolei turned her back and left the garage, despite Jiang Min's continuous begging to just kill him now.

The men understood what she wanted to happen and they agreed with her. Their boss should be the one to pull to the trigger. After all, this young man wasn't just nobody to him. He was the one he personally chose among the sea of great hackers that could be most helpful to him. They also all thought that Jiang Min had to be punished more for this, not only because his betrayal almost killed their boss but because to people like them, when it comes to betrayal, death was the lightest form of punishment.
